I have BT working flawlessly in my car w/my Motorola V600 (2004 525). I've noticed that my cell phone battery is severly affected by bluetooth being turned on.

Am I able to purchase the bluetooth cradle and install it without dealer intervention or reprogramming?

I understand that this will charge the phone and enhance my reception by enabling use of the sharkfin. This to me would suggest that this adapter requires wiring which I dont want to do. Yes/no?

Lastly is the reception increase significant? should I expect my conversations to be alot clearer? I'm interested in hearing if the adpator was worth the $$

Cradle just clips on. The phone is charged whilst in the cradle.
Reception not noticably different.

I have the cradle for a Sony T630 and believe the reception is better. For the price of BT though it should be included.
